Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating for added surface hardness and lubricity, this bit features a 118-degree standard point angle and a right-hand spiral flute for consistent chip evacuation. At 0.0400 inches in diameter (wire gauge size 60) and an overall length of 1.375 inches, this stubby-format bit is sized for use in drill presses, CNC machines, screw machines, and hand-held power tools where rigidity and reduced deflection matter most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and similar materials. The screw machine length format — shorter than a jobber-length bit — reduces flex and improves hole location accuracy, making it a standard choice on turret lathes, screw machines, and gang-drill setups. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks without requiring a specialized holder. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users, though the bit also fits bench-drill and hand-drill applications in light maintenance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 60 with a decimal diameter of 0.0400 inches for precise small-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHSS construction provides toughness and heat resistance across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating reduces friction and improves surface life compared to bare HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry into metal and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine (stub) length of 1.375 inches overall minimizes deflection and improves positional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute with web-thinned parallel web for efficient chip clearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose screw machine length drill bit suitable for use in standard drill chucks, turret lathes, CNC screw machines, and bench-top drill presses that accept straight cylindrical shanks in the applicable collet or chuck range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed machinist or qualified technician should secure the straight shank firmly in a properly sized drill chuck or collet before operation. Ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent rotation during drilling. Verify spindle speed (RPM) is appropriate for the workpiece material and 0.0400-inch bit diameter before engaging the cut. Inspect the cutting edges and point for wear or chipping before each use, as small-diameter bits are susceptible to breakage if run at incorrect feeds or speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0400 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0005 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241635\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01358605\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700184219954,"sku":"01358605","price":35.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/17299269f57883ae06e9dff8786aa70d.jpg?v=1788387309","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01358605-screw-machine-drill-bit-size-60","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
